Festool HW R1-OFK 500 Z1 Roundover Cutter 1 mm Radius for OFK 500 and OFKC 500

Overview

Festool Roundover Cutter HW R1-OFK 500 Z1 At a Glance: 1 mm radius carbide roundover cutter with a 27 mm diameter and one cutting edge. Direct spindle mounting for Festool OFK 500 and OFKC 500 edge routers. Guide bearing sold separately. Add a subtle finishing touch to exposed edges with the Festool HW R1-OFK 500 Z1 roundover cutter. Its fine 1 mm radius softens sharp corners while retaining a crisp, understated appearance, making it useful for furniture components, solid-wood edging and suitable plastic edges. It is an excellent profile choice when a small edge treatment is required without the appearance of a larger roundover. The single-edge Z1 design helps limit heat build-up and reduces the tendency to scorch timber when routing across the grain. Its dedicated hollow-core mounting fits directly onto the compatible router spindle for accurate running. A 5° run-out at the profile transition helps protect the adjoining surface, while the low-profile bearing arrangement supports suitable work in rebates and on stacked panels. A Fine R1 Profile for Discreet Edge Finishing The nominal 1 mm radius creates a small curved transition at the corner. It provides a repeatable alternative to manually softening each edge, particularly when several matching components need the same detail. Product Highlights • Fine 1 mm rounding radius: Softens corners with a restrained edge profile. • Single carbide cutting edge: Z1 geometry helps reduce heat generation during routing. • Direct spindle mounting: Dedicated hollow-core design supports precise cutter running. • 5° profile run-out: Helps protect the adjacent workpiece surface at the profile transition. • Low mounting height: The flush bearing arrangement assists access in suitable restricted setups. • Wood and plastic edging: For solid wood and compatible plastic-edge applications.
